About
TLDR is a daily tech newsletter for readers who want summaries of stories in startups, tech and programming. The home page describes it as a free daily email and says it has 8,000,000+ readers. It links to news stories from other publications, not to a catalogue of products. The pages given do not describe a way to submit or launch a product, so there is no stated submission form, review time, backlink rule or free listing. TLDR does sell advertising through a separate site. Ads are native text placements across 14 interest-based newsletters, in three formats: Quick Links, Secondary and Primary. Pricing is not shown and is set in a custom proposal based on newsletters, placement and number of sends. Ad copywriting and performance reports are included at no extra cost.
